A technological revolution in synthetic and computational biology has created transformational opportunities in providing cost-effective and more sustainable processes for the chemical industries. In addition to economic benefits, these opportunities offer elegant solutions to UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Today, many products are manufactured from fossil fuels using energy-intensive petrochemical technologies. In the age of the genome, many products will stem from cell factories.

We will pioneer in this multi-disciplinary field, integrating world-leading expertise in metabolic engineering, process development and sustainable chemistry. Our innovations will re-imagine theprocessing of carbon feedstocks outside the food value chain towards a more sustainable supply chain.
